Lifetime Goals or... The Bucket List By Chris Widener

My wife and I went and saw The Bucket List starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman the other night. "The Bucket List" is a reference to a list of things you want to do before you "kick the bucket." It is a funny way of putting something that I have had for years.

You know, your life will be over someday, so you may as well make a list of things you want to do before it is over. I actually have a leather journal that sits on my desk that contains 100 things I want to do before my journey on this old earth ends.

Here are a few of the things I have written down, randomly selected: take a tour of the northeast during the autumn change of colors, white water raft in Colorado, pay for a disadvantaged young man or woman to go to college, sell 1,000,000 copies of one book, parachute from an airplane, collect a piece of memorabilia from each U.S. President, and go to the Grand Ole Opry. Plus ninety three others.

Have you thought about what things you want to do in your lifetime? What about even for the next year? I want to encourage you to give some thought this week about what you want to do while you are here. What kind of relationships do you want to have? How much money do you want to make? What career do you want to have? What places do you want to visit? How do you want to help other people? Take some time and jot them down.

Go ahead and make your own "Bucket List." Then get to work on accomplishing the items you list!

The sooner you know where you want to go in life, the sooner you can get there!
